[quote=Anonymous]OP, We were in your situation 16ish years ago. We decided to have #2. It was the best decision we ever made. By the time our kids were 3 and 1, they could play together and we got almost as much alone time as we wanted. Sure we couldn't do things together whenever we wanted but it went from a scheduled routine of who was on duty to both of us wanting to be on duty because it was easier than anything else we had to do. I have been told on numerous occasions that not all siblings are like our kids. But generally, when I start questioning the complainer, they come around to the idea that two are easier than one. Just think of it as even if they fight for 10 min every hour, you get the other 50 min off. The other important thing I want to make clear is that no matter how busy this recent period or the first year of your 2nd child's life are, YOU WILL MISS THOSE DAYS when they are over. [/quote]
